We summarize the new results on $B$ meson mixing and mixing-related $CP$ violation presented at CKM2016. We place these results in the context of both previous experimental measurements and the most recent theoretical developments in the…
CP-violation (CPV) and Time-reversal violation (TRV) are intimately related through the CPT theorem: if one of these discrete symmetries is violated the other one has to be violated in such a way to conserve CPT. Although CPV in the B0-B0…
The BABAR detector, operating at energies near the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance at the PEP-II asymmetric $B$ Factory at SLAC, has collected a sample of 32 million $B\bar B$ pairs by May 2001. A study of time-dependent CP-violating asymmetries…
Results by the BaBar and Belle experiments of the measurements $\sin 2\alpha$, $\sin 2\beta$ and $\sin (2\beta + \gamma)$ along with the CKM matrix elements $V_{cb}$ and $V_{ub}$ are presented. The BaBar and Belle experiments $b \to…

We discuss some possible signals of CPT violation in the $B_s$ system that may be probed at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We show how one can construct combinations ofobservables coming from tagged and untagged decay rates of $B_s\to…
Tests of CPT and Lorentz symmetry using neutral-meson oscillations are studied within a formalism that allows for indirect CPT and T violation of arbitrary size and is independent of phase conventions. The analysis is particularly…
We summarize recent results by the BABAR and Belle Collaborations on the search for CP violation and new physics beyond the Standard Model in several rare B meson decays. The measurements exploit the final BABAR and Belle Upsilon(4S)…
The BABAR detector, at the PEP-II asymmetric B Factory at SLAC collected a sample of 32 million BBbar pairs whilst operating at energies near the Upsilon(4S) resonance between October 1999 and May 2001. An study of time-dependent…
Parameters describing CPT violation are extracted from a variety of rate asymmetries in the neutral-$D$ system. The precision to which these parameters could be measured in present and planned machines is examined.
The problem of indirect violation of discrete symmeties CP, T and CPT in a neutral meson system can be described using two complex parameters epsilon and delta, which are invariant under rephasing of meson and quark fields. For the Bd…

CP violation in the K system is pedagogically reviewed. We discuss its manifestations in the neutral K meson systems, in rare K meson decays and in decays of charged K mesons. Results from classical experiments, and perspectives for…
We report the recent measurements of $B^0\to J/\psi\pi^0$ and other CP violation modes based on the data collected by the Belle experiment at the KEKB collider. The CP asymmetry parameters for the decay $B^0\to J/\psi\pi^0$ have previously…
